I hope you've prepared yourself, got your running shoes on, stuffed your wallet full of linden and have your best no prim outfit laid out on the bed to wear because tomorrow morning at 10am SLT the Relay for Life Clothing Fair opens to the public!

I am participating in the RFL Clothing Fair again this year and you can teleport to my shop on Sim #8 by clicking on this SLURL.

My new outfit, Victoria (in red, picture above), will ONLY be available at the RFL Clothing Fair this week and all proceeds from the sale will be donated to the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life. After the fair closes it will be available at my main location at Dream On Bay.

I think there are very few people who have not had the spectre of cancer touch them or their family in some way. My family is no different. The most recent being my stepdad who was diagnosed with cancer about four weeks ago and had surgery to remove a very large tumor about a week ago. It is beyond stressful for the victim as well as their family and friends to go through the process of diagnosis, testing and finally, treatment. I am sure many of you know this well.

They removed a tumor the size of a basketball (25 pounds!), and the kidney it was attached to, from my stepdad's abdomen. The prognosis is good, there was no spread, so we count ourselves very lucky that his recovery should go well. Other families are not always so lucky and I feel it is important for me to show my support by doing the small things I can do, including participating in the Relay for Life program in Second Life.

I hope many of you will join me in celebrating life by shopping til we drop and doing what we can to support finding a cure for cancer. Until there's a cure... let's Relay!

I'm a little behind in my blog posts but here, finally, is my latest release. The Highland Trilogy consisting of Highland Hipbanger, Highland Fantasy and Highland Wrap. This was actually released on February 10th. So now a month later I am posting it to my blog. Sorry for the delay but fortunately for me Photographing SL phenominal artist, Elysium Eilde and her partner in crime, Feles Seitan, did a wonderful expose of this design the day of release. You can read their reviews here and here.

WARNING: ATTITUDE REQUIRED!

Leather and plaid combine in a number of ways to keep things sizzling hot with tons of accessories and mix and match options. I"ve done three different designs all meant to compliment each other, or any other outfit you'd like to mix them up with. All in your choice of 9 colors or get the phatpacks for a 35-40% discount. (all 3 releases are color coordinated for even more mixing and matching between the sets)

HIGHLAND FANTASY: A silk-like design but with a leather and plaid twist that suits any fantasy role you want to play in and out of the bedroom. Tons of accessories include: Laced and studded Bracers (2 variations plus clothing layer base included), barbaric style earrings and belly ring, 4 skirt styles varying from simple to fancy, short to long (includes belted style that can be worn without the panties), Buckled and strapped calf wraps, Studded armbands with dangly cloth, panties on all layers, bra top on all layers and a buckled strapped thighband to finish the look.

HIGHLAND WRAP: What can I say about this one? I love it, it's my favorite piece in the whole design. I've done it in 3 variations and with or without the chain necklace so it will compliment most any outfit you wish to accessorize with it. It's a variation on the cloak idea but with a highland twist. A must have accessory for anyone who loves cloaks or shoulder armor accessories. It's strapped and buckled, with tons of detail to please the eye. 6 different options are included in each color for your pleasure.
